Pet care experience

Hello fur baby owners! I'm an outgoing, stay at home mom and an animal lover of all sorts! My family lives in a 4 bedroom 4 story home with a very large yard in Seaford DE. I have multiple years working hands on with animals, specializing in dogs. In my adolescent years I worked in all areas of an animal rescue out of Harbeson Delaware who primarily took in dogs, cats and horses. I have worked at the SPCA in Dover DE as a kennel tech and my most recent employable work outside of rover with dogs was at a grooming salon in Rehoboth Beach. We have two male miniature dachshunds that love when we have visitors. My knowledge of different breeds and their specific needs is pretty versatile. I'm adaptable in most situations and will accommodate any special needs your pup may have. I come highly recommended from current long term clients who would be happy to provide a refrence upon request. I will not use kennels for overnight stays unless recommended by owner. I pride myself on keeping your animals day with me as close to their daily routine at home. Less stress for animal and owner alike that way! If there are any questions or you would like to schedule a meet and greet, please feel free to reach out!

Katherine took amazing care of Buddy. She gave us updates with pictures and texts. He was very loved and taken care of. I will definitely use Katherine again in the future and highly recommend her.

Katherine was fantastic! She watched our dog Olive (3 year old mixed breed) while we went to the beach with our family. Katherine is so loving and her two dachshunds welcomed Olive right in. She’s knowledgeable about dogs and made Olive feel right at home! She sent lots of pictures and updates and we felt so relaxed knowing Olive was in a loving environment (with plenty of space to run around!)

Katherine has been a god-send to my family and dogs. She does her best to accommodate emergencies and last minutes requests for me and almost always comes through to help. She treats my babies like they are her own and they are always ecstatic to see her. Every day they are walked with her I get tons of pictures and updates as well. She is always vigilant and recognizes if any of them are having an off day or don't feel well and immediately lets me know. I have piece of mind knowing how much my "kids" love Katherine and love being with her when we go out of town or on vacation which is not something that happens easily. On top of that, I foster dogs and she is always willing to care for my fosters, no matter age, breed, size, or special needs. I couldn't recommend Katherine enough to watch and walk your fur babies <3
